I just finished cutting mine. I used 10 different fabrics and I cut 2 strips of 5-1/2' x WOF. Ended up with 80 5-1/2' x 9-1/2' , than took one pile of 40 of those strips and from each 5-1/2' x 9-1/2' strip I cut one 2' x 9-1/;2' and was left with a 3-1/2' x 9-1/2'. When I finished cutting the 40 strips I ended up with the following:

40- 5-1/2' x 9-1/2' 40- 2' x 9-1/2' 40- 3-1/2' x 9-1/2' strips.

Now I wait for our next step on the 16th. I decided to do mine Christmas and used 10 different Christmas fabrics.

Whoa Nana. We have sure kept you busy today. But now I understand. I am going ahead and cutting for 40. I may go 6 x 6 blocks, and 4 extra for corners or a pillow or something. Or just add another 2 blocks for 6x7.

I have to wait for my order to come before cutting, but I have a question. If I want to make my quilt larger, I am assuming from what I'm reading here that I need to decided before I start - is this a correct assumption? I cannot believe that I have not even started and I'm so confused, but then I am a BSC. LOL

Life is like a quilt...bits & pieces, joy & sorrow, stitched with love

BSC (?), Is that blonde senior citizen? If so, you don't have to be blonde. LOL
